Just wanted to say that I have been a fan of Star Wars since, well, I was born. Can't remember the first time watching it but do remember all the toys I had growing up. My favorite character is Mara Jade (as you can tell with my Avatar) and my favorite book is Young Jedi Knights: Heir to the Force.

Out of curiosity, did they destroy the forums on the Star Wars website? or did they move here?

They were closed. A significant number of their regulars found their way here, but all of this site's content is original to these boards. Welcome and thanks for the introduction. Hope to have you stay around. Get to know the forums, get active, and have a brilliant go. If you need any assistance, feel free to @.tag one of us in here simply use this thread as your personal tech support.

I just can second the suggested boards by Destiny. They seem to fit to you best, but don't hesitate to take a look around. Meeting other SW fans from your area is cool as well for example (you can find them under 'FanForce').

Hello, and welcome aboard. There is so much to see and do over here. It's never dull. Everybody is friendly and helpful, and we have the best staff of administrators and moderators on the Internet, in my opinion. Enjoy your stay, and have lots of fun.
